Why write a blog? Because I can. Is that a good enough reason? Just because I can, should I? There are many things I can do, but not all of them are beneficial - to myself or to others. So why write a blog? (or why read a blog?) The main reason I see is because in writing a blog I examine my ideas my motives the inner working of my thought processes. While thinking deeply about what to write I grow to learn more of myself and of others. So, for me the reason to write a blog is to grow. In addition to the benefit to myself I believe that there is also benefit for others.
